Student Groups Collect Food FAYETTEVILLE - The Student Employee Advisory Council of the intramural/recreational sports department at the University of Arkansas, in cooperation with the Residents’ Interhall Congress, recently hosted two separate annual holiday food drives and donated all of the proceeds to the Northwest Arkansas Food Bank as one large donation from the University of Arkansas.
The Residents’ Interhall Congress food drive for canned food ran from Nov. 10 through 23. It was a competition between the residence halls with a monetary prize that went toward the top three halls senate budgets.
The employee advisory council’s food drive ran from Nov. 1 through Dec. 16.
Donations made at the Health, Physical Education and Recreation Building on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays gave participants one free guest pass to the HPER. Holcombe Hall residents won a competition between sororities, fraternities and residence halls to donate the most food items.
With the combined efforts of both groups’ food drives, the organizations were able to raise 588 pounds of food items to benefit the Northwest Arkansas Food Bank. The donations were dropped off on Dec. 16.
